The Powerplant

Powering this motorsport-derived 911 is the 3.6-liter Mezger flat-six engine, featuring VarioCam variable valve timing, titanium connecting rods, and dry-sump lubrication. Factory-rated at 415 horsepower and 300 lb-ft of torque, this powerplant channels its output through a six-speed manual transaxle and limited-slip differential. The owner has added GMG exhaust components, modifying the car's exhaust note while maintaining the vehicle's mechanical configuration.

Documentation & Heritage

Documentation includes the original window sticker confirming its $146,350 MSRP and initial delivery to Napleton Westmont Porsche in Westmont, Illinois. The sale includes a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, owner's manuals, service records, and a clean Carfax report. The vehicle is offered with a clean Illinois title in the owner's name.

The 997.1 generation GT3 RS occupies a position in Porsche's motorsport lineage as one of the last analog GT cars from the marque. Its limited production numbers, driving characteristics with minimal electronic intervention, and connection to Porsche's racing heritage have established its position in the collector market. This one-owner, low-mileage example represents the 997.1 GT3 RS model with its factory specifications and owner modifications.

Interior & Details

The interior of this GT3 RS showcases a perfect blend of motorsport functionality and road-going comfort. The Euro 996 GT3-specification Recaro bucket seats are trimmed in black leather, providing both support during spirited driving and comfort for longer journeys. The cabin features a body-color roll bar, enhancing both safety and aesthetics, while Schroth safety harnesses and a Sharkwerks fire extinguisher kit further emphasize the car's track-ready nature.

Modern amenities haven't been overlooked, with the Porsche Communication Management (PCM) system providing navigation and entertainment functions. The Valentine One radar detector installation shows thoughtful consideration for real-world usability. Climate control ensures comfort in various conditions, making this GT3 RS as capable on daily drives as it is on track days.

“The app was a lifesaver today at the DMV. When they had our company name recorded incorrectly, I was able to immediately pull up the scanned registration document, show them the correct information, and get the issue resolved on the spot.”
David A.

“The app saved me a ton of frustration today. I called the service center, and they asked for my VIN. The car wasn't even at my location, and just as I started to stress, I remembered I had the VIN stored right in the app. Problem solved immediately.”
Tom R.

“I wanted to show a potential buyer photos of one of my cars spur of the moment, but found myself scrolling endlessly through my camera roll. Then I remembered the app had all my car photos organized and easy to find. Within seconds, I pulled them up and even shared a direct gallery link with the buyer.”
